Alexandre Trottier was very confused by the Super Mario Bros. 2 manual as a child, as it referred to Birdo as a “he”. That, as well as being an egg-spewing pink dinosaur with a giant bowtie helped Birdo to skyrocket to the top of his list of the weirdest Mario Bros. characters. If you can think of an equally strange or obscure Mario Bros. character that would make for a good comic, tweet your idea to @NF_Alexandre or comment below. As well, be sure to promote the article via various social media outlets by using the “share” buttons below! It will make Alex feel very good about himself. He’s also got a Tumblr full of silly Nintendo things that he makes.

About the author:

When Alex was young, he used to cry whenever his parents tried to hand him a game controller. Having complete control over the life of a red-clad Italian plumber was just too daunting to him. Nowadays, he only cries when the controller’s taken away.

Hailing from the frigid tundras of Canada, Alex plays video games not only to entertain himself, but also as a source of warmth to get him through the winter. He loves all genres of video games, the more difficult the better. Some of his current favourites include Citizens of Earth, Super Smash Bros. and Monster Hunter.
